I couldn't Sleep
I'm lying there...4am Sunday, my new 135 sitting outside....so......thought I'd take a drive. Car felt great, fantastic, brilliant...so I drove....and drove....and drove some more....
Got back the following day, today, at midday - yes I am taking the missus out tonight for a nice meal!! (tried to attach them in order, but they haven't come out like that...never mind) |

Beautiful country! Isn't always a bummer when you reach your destination in the 135i?

Nice! Planning a winter trip upto Scotland in mine once it lands! And, no doubt the first week of ownership will have me going out for a ''quick'' drive at any time night or day!
Congrats on the new ride! |

Just amazing country side and winding roads!! Sadly all I have now are straight, flat Florida roads. Thanks for the pics and making me remember the good times...

It si funny since mine is a week old and I have been tempted to just go driving as well. My girlfriend is constantly at me to let her drive, and then I smack her on the nose! and say...No! Bad girl, now you sit there and be good and look out the window and dont drool on the car.

Sort of like a Forrest Gump - started running and just went on and on
All jokes aside, I bet it was an amazing trip and you sure did make a lot of very nice pics Landscape looks beautiful and love that LMB color! Thanks for sharing. |

Thank you for showing us Scotland. Had a similar experience last night to a lesser extend. I finished doing some work at 3am feeling frustrated and caged up all night, hopped in my car and headed to an construction area with freshly laid asphalt, completely deserted and had some fun.
